Surreal Painting of the White Desert 28w x22h unframed. Needs frame as is not gallery wrapped. I hope this painting will give you the feel of lonliness and vastness that I felt creating it.Yet I knew God was there. Signed and certificate of authenticity.

Desert Placesby: Robert Frost

Snow falling and night falling fast, oh, fastIn a field I looked into going past,And the ground almost covered smooth in snow,But a few weeds and stubble showing last.

The woods around it have it--it is theirs.All animals are smothered in their lairs.I am too absent-spirited to count;The loneliness includes me unawares.

And lonely as it is that lonelinessWill be more lonely ere it will be less--A blanker whiteness of benighted snowWith no expression, nothing to express.

They cannot scare me with their empty spacesBetween stars--on stars where no human race is.I have it in me so much nearer homeTo scare myself with my own desert places
